Pitch 1 - This pitch would be a 5 star pitch by itself.

Cat working through the tricky first pitch crux

Looking down Pitch 3.

Wyatt does battle with the very demanding first pitch

Looking across the traverse to the Beckey

SUMMIT!

Don't touch that flake. Will it be there this time next year...?

Heady, exposed 5.7 taverse on Pitch 6. Good job Brad.

Very old bolt on Pitch 8. Beckey Bolt?

Lovely evening light

One of the many cool dihedral pitches!

Annie following the intense 1st crux pitch.

Wide slot near the top of Pitch 3.

Court leading the last pitch. The awkward slot is visible above.

Court coming up the 7th pitch.

Looking down on the wide slot at the end of the 3rd pitch. It looks small in the photo, but is actually squeeze size.
